18 Indie Signing of the Registry Songs

After you have said your vows, it is time to make it official by signing the marriage license (also called wedding registry). Your wedding license is government issued and signed by the wedding officiant, the married couple and witnesses (usually the best man and maid of honour). The signing usually takes 2-4 minutes and it is pretty standard for music to be quietly played during this time.

Signing of the Registry Music

There are a few of notes that you should consider about your signing of the registry songs:

The signing can take up to 4 min so you should try to pick a song that is at least that long
If you’d like a shorter song than 4 min, you can just have a back-up song in ccase your first song finishes before you are done signing
Love songs are perfect

I’ve put together a list of indie signing of the registry songs that you can find below:

All Is Full of Love by Björk
Blood Bank by Bon Iver
Your Rocky Spine by Great Lake Swimmers
Love And Some Verses by Iron & Wine
Anyone Else But You (The Moldy Peaches) by Juno Soundtrack
Take Care by Beach House
I Will Follow You into the Dark by Death Cab for Cutie
Towers by Rah Rah
Already Yours by BAHAMAS
Hockey Teeth by BAHAMAS
You Are the Best Thing by Ray LaMontagne

Indie Wedding Songs – Recessional

Written by Justin 2 Comments

You just got married! Now it’s time to walk back down the aisle with your spouse, but what song do you want to celebrate with? I feel that a recessional wedding song should be lively and happy and make you feel good. It is also great if there is a slight build up at the beggining of your recessional song as this will give you a few seconds to turn and face your guests. In my typical style, I have included a few songs from different genres of wedding music for your wedding recession. Listen to any of the songs by clicking the link and I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
